Health and Wellness

Health and wellness is the overall state of well-being, encompassing physical, mental, and social aspects of a person’s life. It involves striving for optimal functioning and balance in all areas of health.

physical health

We partner with Afya101 to perform health checkups.This relates to the body’s well-being, including aspects such as fitness, nutrition, sleep, and disease prevention. Afya101 also invites us to their monthly tournaments called the loopers league and this helps one exercise and relax from a long period of work. 

mental health

HEWGICH started an initiative that strives to establish an intimate chain of mentorship amongst girls and young women, with the goal of encouraging one another’s growth and mental wellness. It involves having a positive mindset, managing stress effectively, coping with challenges, and maintaining good mental resilience. Mental health can be nurtured through practices like mindfulness, self-care, seeking support, and engaging in activities that promote mental well-being.

social health

HEWGICH gives one the opportunity of promoting their social network by partnering with the Afya101 team. We organise the monthly tournaments and thus gives people a platform to interact and gain knowledge from a diverse community.Social well-being encompasses healthy relationships, a supportive network, and a sense of belonging.
